Message definition (Vitamin B12)
=== Pseudovitamin-B<sub>12</sub> ===
Pseudovitamin-B<sub>12</sub> refers to B<sub>12</sub>-like analogues that are biologically inactive in humans. Most cyanobacteria, including ''[[Spirulina (dietary supplement)|Spirulina]]'', and some algae, such as ''[[Porphyra]] tenera'' (used to make a dried seaweed food called [[nori]] in Japan), have been found to contain mostly pseudovitamin-B<sub>12</sub> instead of biologically active B<sub>12</sub>. These pseudo-vitamin compounds can be found in some types of shellfish, in edible insects, and at times as metabolic breakdown products of cyanocobalamin added to dietary supplements and fortified foods.
